Subject: sched: fix prev_stime calculation

sched: fix prev_stime calculation

Srivatsa Vaddagiri noticed occasionally incorrect CPU usage
values in top and tracked it down to stime going below 0 in
task_stime(). Negative values are possible there due to the
sampled nature of stime/utime.

Fix suggested by Balbir Singh.
